Comprehensive crash analysis includes calculating impact speed, which requires the
determination of kinetic energy expended on the deformation of the vehicle's structural …

How crashes translate into physical injuries remains controversial. Previous studies
recommended a predictor, Delta-V, to describe the crash consequences in terms of mass …

Protection of cars, mainly drivers and passengers in a collision are very important issues
worldwide. Statistics given by" World Health Organization" are alarming rate of increase in …

Determination of deformation energy is an integral part of the accident analysis. Deformation
energy could be expressed by parameter EES, which could directly enter the calculation or …

The impacts of flood events that occurred in autumn 2011 in the Italian regions of Liguria
and Tuscany revived the engagement of the public decision-maker to enhance the synergy …

Automotive crash data analysis and reconstruction is vital for ensuring automotive safety.
The objective of vehicle crash reconstruction is to determine the vehicle's motion before …

The thesis is devoted to the area of load identification problems. It is rather experimental in
matter. However, the experimental research was supplemented with numerical simulations …

Although semitrailer underride collisions have a rela-tively high risk of injury, the significant
body of data developed through crash testing has not been previously analyzed in a single …

Wheels and tires on vehicles, are often directly (or indirectly) involved in collisions with other
vehicles or fixed objects. In this study, the effects of the pneumatic tire and rim, as it …

The comprehensive crash analysis includes impact speed calculation which requires the
determination of kinetic energy expended on the deformation of the vehicle's structural …
